Potpourri Edition
Jonathan Armstrong returns from assignment to take on a potpourri of issues with co-host Tom Fox. We use the recent speech by Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco as a jumping off point to discuss how this change in DOJ enforcement policy and focus will be impacted by GDPR, the new EU Whistleblower Directive and how increased international cooperation around international anti-corruption compliance may play out. Some of the issues we consider include:
- Data protection issues under the new DOJ FCPA enforcement policy?
- Monitorships outside the US.
- Data privacy and investigations.
- Class actions in the UK going forward.
- Increased cooperation between the DOJ/SEC and the UK Serious Fraud Office.
